Abstract
A 35-year-old man developed progressive memory problems and personality changes over the course of 6 months. This amnesia culminated in overt functional impairment as he began getting lost in familiar places and paid his rent multiple times in one day. He then displayed increased aggression and was admitted to hospital after assaulting a family member.
